You should mail that LD guy for a manual, I also did so, so I could also mail it to you. Finding the gain is a p in the a, I just know now that my sextetts (600ohm) definetly work best at the highest gain (10). But now I'm gonna have to do the whole testing sh!t again when my K701's arrive

 

[vvanrij]

Btw any K701 + MKIVse owners here, how is the 'synergy' between these too, and what gain do you use??

Don't have K701s, however, my gain is at (10) for K501s, HD580s & DT880...

Yeah I think I like gain 10 the best too. And I have the manual, but thanks for the offer. Is it true the K501 and K400 are comparable?

I really don't know, have never heard the K400, however, they do look alike

The gain at (10) is a good choice, unless you use low imp. phones. With the K501s (120 ohm), my volume pot does not go past 10-11...

The headphone jack is an upgrade, and the warranty is much better, so I personally feel that the extra $100 on the price tag is justified.

Man, you're making me regret my decision to purchase the MKIV.

Welcome to HeadFI where you don't have to worry about your wallet because we do that for you!

You sound like a Grado man so if your wallet's as a flush as your first post, I'd recommend the Grado SR325i @ $300 or if you're a little less flush than you seem, the Grado SR60 @$70 may be just what you want.

This site is broken down into various equipment catagories and you inadvertantly landed at the tail end of a discussion about an obscure chinese tube headphone amplifier, the Little Dot MKIV SE, so you may want to look here Headphones (full-size) - Head-Fi: Covering Headphones, Earphones and Portable Audio so you can ask your question in the right forum.

You're off to a very auspicious start so good bye and good luck!

MKIVse + K701 is excellent synergy, anybody else here have the same combo?

 

[nismohks]

is there an english instruction book for the mkivse?

mine is in chinese, and i have no idea what it says.

what is the gain setting and how can i change it?

thanks

edit: i just emailed little.tube@gmail.com to request and english manual. is that the right communications channel to reach them?

also, atm i am using it with my ipod classic and LOD connected directly to the mkivse and i can hear a slight buzzing in the background with my hd600. Is this normal given that the amp is brand new with under 1 hour of time on it?

 

[nismohks]

also does anyone's mkivse make any noise in the headphones even when nothing is played?

mine makes a slight buzzing and staticy noise even when nothing is plugged in or played....

any ideas?

Make sure all the tubes are pushed in all the way in the sockets. The MK IV SE should be dead silent....
